Answer:

The actions and words of a parents can harm their children, in their later life.

Such as, "You're so worthless." These types of words make children emotionally abused, and mentally abused, as the children are developing their emotions, and body throughout this time.

A recent study in the US has shown how parenting style can influence the way our children learn self-control at age three, so that teaches us that children are very fragile, and has to be handled carefully, just like a treasured possession.

The key to closing the gap in child outcomes is closing the gap in what families do with their children.

The choices of the parents, such as leaving their child in the middle of a busy street, while getting some coffee from the nearest coffee shop, is potentially an recipe for death. Just look at this: almost 400 children aged 15 and under are killed yearly when struck by a vehicle.

The bad choices could include: Leaving a child on a trash compactor, not buckling up their children, or putting your child near a freezer. These are all super deadly options, as car crashes are everywhere these days.

There are positive effects, as giving a child an apple a day, it keeps the doctor away.

Getting your child to go to bed early, well, look: Studies have shown that whoever habitually sleep less than six and a half hours of per night are more susceptible to type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension. Even with a healthy diet and regular gym time, an earlier bedtime can be a huge plus for your longevity.

The positivity of the parents could do some good too, because the kids can learn to be positive in school, which makes everyone else positive, and so on. If the parents decide to put their kid in a toxic and harsh environment, then the child will get toxic and harsh too.

Overall, a parent has to have a good sense of consciousness, a favorable luck.
